Library Use Value Calculator
What is your library worth to you?
The Harper Woods Public Library is proud to introduce the Library Use Value Calculator! With it, you can calculate the dollar value of the services offered here at the library based on service usage per month. For instance, if you were to borrow 2 books, 1 magazine, 5 movies and use the computer for 15 hours in one month, the total amount of services rendered would be worth $193.00!

You can check out the Library Use Value Calculator Here!

The Library of Michigan is threatened by severe cuts to funding. The LOM coordinates programs that allow your local public libraries across the state provide you with access to great technology, electronic access to knowledge and to share book resources statewide. If you value your library and the services offered, please take a moment to let your legislators know. Tell them you support libraries and library funding and they should too. Click on the above icon to share your support!

For all events please call the library at 313-343-2575 to reserve a seat!
